by 11 comments

To mark its sixth birthday, the image hosting/sharing service Imgur has announced that it is making its Pro service free for all. Imgur Pro typically costs $3 per month or $24 per year (if you pay in advance).

The company has ditched its subscription-based model in favour of ad-supported business. One display ad per page will now be shown.

Going forward, users with free Imgur accounts will be able to store unlimited number of images, receive multiple thumbnail options on all uploads, and access complete image analytics and referrer data. They will also be able to manage, edit, or delete any uploaded image at any time, as well as interact with the Imgur community through commenting, voting, and sharing.

The company has also sent out emails to all its Pro subscribers informing them about the change. Those who’ve paid for a Pro subscription within the last 30 days will get a complete refund through PayPal or Google Wallet.
